The CMA welcomes back Duo Cortona — mezzo-soprano Rachel Calloway and violinist Ari Streisfeld — for a very special virtual performance recorded in the CMA collection galleries. This concert, inspired by ancient Greek poet Sappho's texts and the female experience, features a world premiere of Asunder by UofSC’s very own John Fitz Rogers as well as works by Laura Schwendinger, Robert Morris, Hilda Paredes, Akshaya Avril Tucker, Carolina Heredia, and Annika Socolofsky. Join us for this exclusive performance as Duo Cortona immerse themselves into works of art in the CMA collection with the accompanying power of music.

Get insight on works in the CMA collection from our knowledgeable group of interpretive guides. Docents will be available throughout the galleries to provide further information and answer questions about art on view. Look for their “Ask me about the art!” buttons to learn more.

Join the Columbia Design League (CDL) for a virtual feast for all the senses from the comfort of your own home. Rita Patel, owner and founder of Hotel Trundle, and her brother, actor Manish Dayal (The 100 Foot Journey, The Resident, and 90210), lead a cyber cooking class, while Kristian Niemi, owner of Columbia restaurants Black Rooster and Bourbon, crafts a mango rum cocktail inspired by the exhibition Visions from India, which closed on January 10. Throughout the evening, experience the show even after it's closed through virtual gallery pop-ins with CMA Curator Catherine Walworth.
